See more:

I have build a customized software; After completion of the testing there a lots of changes that need to update in the software. So i made the changes and again rebuild it.
But the problem is that every time i have uninstalled the previous version of that software and install the new version to get the updated version.

I think if i build only the changes and install it into the computer then i don't need to uninstall the software and that will be a good solution.
But i don't have any idea how to build Service Pack.

Hope i can clearly mention my problem. do any confusion regarding this question don't hesitate to ask.

Expect positive reply from developers.
Thanks in advance.

To have the installer automatically uninstall your application you need to set RemovePreviousVersion [^]to True and make sure that you increase the version number of your application by at least the Build number.
